Answer 1

If you are the victim of domestic violence and are an immigrant, legal or not, there are special visas possibly available to you and your child.

If your wife is the one verifying your documentation to become a legal resident, she could decide to stop working with you if she wants to control your actions.

I would encourage you to call the National Domestic Violence Helpline (1-800-799-SAFE). It is a free service that can find a local program. They also have interpreters available if you are more comfortable speaking in a language other than English. They can help you find a program next to you who can give you more information about your rights.
